Sarawak targets 15,000MW power capacity by 2035, with 60pc from renewables

Sarawak targets 15,000 MW of electricity by 2035, with 60% from renewable sources, through major projects like Baleh, Samalaju, and Miri.

The Baleh hydroelectric plant will start in 2029, Samalaju phases from 2027, and Miri in late 2027.

Sarawak exports electricity to Kalimantan and Sabah, with plans for Brunei, Singapore, and Peninsular Malaysia.

KUCHING, Oct 19 — Sarawak aims for an electricity generation capacity of 15,000 megawatts (MW) by 2035, with at least 60 per cent coming from renewable energy sources.

Sarawak Minister of Utility and Telecommunication Datuk Seri Julaihi Narawi said that to achieve this target, three major projects with a total capacity of 3,285 MW are currently being implemented: the Baleh hydroelectric project, the Samalaju Combined Cycle Power Plant (CCPP), and the Miri Combined Cycle Gas Turbine (CCGT).

“The Baleh hydroelectric plant, with a capacity of 1,285 MW, is expected to operate in the fourth quarter of 2029. The Samalaju CCPP, with a capacity of 1,500 MW, is scheduled to operate in phases, with Blocks 1 and 2 having a total capacity of 1,000 MW expected to operate in the second quarter of 2027, while Block 3 with a capacity of 500 MW is scheduled for the first quarter of 2027.

“The Miri CCGT, with a capacity of 500 MW, has now achieved 63 percent physical progress and is expected to start operating in the fourth quarter of 2027,” he said.

Julaihi said this when winding up the debate for his ministry at the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly (DUN) sitting here, today.

Meanwhile, Julaihi said Sarawak continues to strengthen its role as the Battery of Asean through the development of the Borneo Power Grid and the Asean Power Grid.

“Currently, Sarawak exports an average of 100 MW to West Kalimantan and 30 MW to Sabah. The government is also planning electricity exports to Brunei of at least 30 MW, Singapore of not exceeding 1,000 MW, and Peninsular Malaysia of not less than 1,000 MW.

“The interconnection project to Brunei is still in negotiations and feasibility studies, Singapore is in the submarine cable survey study stage, while Peninsular Malaysia is in early discussions,” he said. — Bernama

砂拉越的目标是到 2035 年实现 15,000 兆瓦的电力供应，其中 60% 来自可再生能源，并通过 Baleh、Samalaju 和 Miri 等大型项目来实现这一目标。

巴莱水电站将于 2029 年投产，萨马拉朱水电站将于 2027 年分阶段投产，美里水电站将于 2027 年底投产。

砂拉越向加里曼丹和沙巴出口电力，并计划向文莱、新加坡和马来西亚半岛出口电力。

古晋，10 月 19 日讯——砂拉越的目标是到 2035 年实现 15,000 兆瓦 (MW) 的发电能力，其中至少 60% 来自可再生能源。

砂拉越公用事业及通讯部长拿督斯里朱莱希·纳拉维表示，为实现这一目标，目前正在实施三个总装机容量为 3,285 兆瓦的大型项目：巴莱水电项目、萨马拉朱联合循环发电厂 (CCPP) 和美里联合循环燃气轮机 (CCGT)。

“装机容量为 1,285 兆瓦的巴莱水电站预计将于 2029 年第四季度投入运营。装机容量为 1,500 兆瓦的萨马拉朱联合循环发电厂计划分阶段运营，其中 1 号和 2 号机组总装机容量为 1,000 兆瓦，预计将于 2027 年第二季度投入运营，而装机容量为 500 兆瓦的 3 号机组计划于 2027 年第一季度投入运营。

“装机容量为 500 兆瓦的美里联合循环燃气轮机电厂目前已完成 63% 的建设，预计将于 2027 年第四季度开始运营，”他说道。

朱莱希今天在砂拉越州立法议会（DUN）结束其部门的辩论时发表了上述言论。

与此同时，朱莱希表示，砂拉越正通过发展婆罗洲电网和东盟电网，继续加强其作为东盟“电池”的作用。

“目前，砂拉越平均向西加里曼丹出口100兆瓦电力，向沙巴出口30兆瓦电力。政府还计划向文莱出口至少30兆瓦电力，向新加坡出口不超过1000兆瓦电力，向马来西亚半岛出口不少于1000兆瓦电力。”

他说：“与文莱的互联项目仍在谈判和可行性研究阶段，新加坡正处于海底电缆勘测研究阶段，而与马来西亚半岛的互联项目则处于早期讨论阶段。”——马新社
